Tessa smiled and pressed her lips together. "I will be yours sooner or later, so why are you in such a hurry?"
Stephen held her hand, his fingers gently stroking her palm in gentle motions. "I can't wait even a single day longer. No, not even a single second."
He smiled as he continued, "Before, I was afraid you would think getting married right away was too sudden, so I suggested to your father that we could get engaged first and then wait until our feelings matured before getting married. But looking back now, I was just digging my own grave."
Tessa smiled and replied, "So, have those feelings matured now?"
Stephen pinched her cheek lightly. "That's for you to answer. My feelings matured a long time ago."
Lowering her gaze with a faint smile. Tessa had the urge to tease him. "Then wait a little longer."
Stephen laughed indulgently and played along. "So, may I ask when Ms. Yates wants to become Mrs. Jacobson?"
"We'll see," Tessa said with a playful tilt of her head, making a funny face at him. "It depends on my mood."
As they chatted along the way, the atmosphere between them was lively.
When they arrived at the estate, Stephen opened the car door and extended his hand toward Tessa.
She placed her hand in his, stepped out of the car, and walked with him toward the estate.
The estate was adorned with balloons and flowers everywhere. Thousands of fresh pink roses were arranged in a path leading from the gate to the main villa.
Tessa, wearing high heels, stepped onto the petal-covered path and walked slowly into the banquet hall of the main villa.
The meticulously decorated hall was filled with festive cheer and melodious music.
Guests approached them one after another, offering their congratulations and well wishes.
After greeting the guests, Tessa and Stephen headed to the backstage lounge to confirm the engagement ceremony process with the host.
The Jacobson family members were all present.
Even Ralph Jacobson, who rarely appeared due to his job in Jordanville, had come back from the capital. Dressed in a deep red suit, his kind and warm smile made him appear full of energy.

Oh my god, when is this book finishing... they're not even back together yet and more nonsense side plots.....
Whoa! Hahahahahaha! Go, Sophia! Burn, stupid Rowena! Lol...
Sooo~ Chapters 310-318 were just a repeat of Jacqueline’s punishment, official expulsion from the Jacobson family, and arrest. With few changes since Tessa and Stephen are not together this time. So Tessa didn’t witness how Jacqueline was tortured at Stephen’s base, though at least Tessa was still called over and witnessed how Stephen officially expelled Jacqueline from the Jacobson family and how Stephen’s subordinate made Jacqueline grovel in front of Tessa. Lol. I hope Jacqueline’s really out of the story now....
Also a lot of chapters were missing here. I went back to the application where it was originally published that’s why i know that this site is not reliable...
Fucked up book! Seems like the authors were not talking to each other. LOL. Yes authors, because of the inconsistencies....
The story went downhill after pg200 1. Why is Jacqueline back… she was expelled from the family already 2. There was no reason for Rowena to be mad at Tessa 3. The Jacobson already knows that Stephen wants to get back witb Tessa after they deal with James, so why is Rowena pushing hard? LOL 4. The family also knows that Stephen and Nancy have some sort of deal. The story was okay from page 1-199, but clearly it’s a thumbs down. I can deal with grammatical errors, but story errors is just different now....
This is funny! Jacqueline was also the culprit why James knew that nancy was Stephen's cousin. So, really, what happened when steohen tortured jacqueline hahah...
I wonder how many authors does this book have? Suddenly jacqueline was back and continue to bad mouth tessa. And was stunned that tessa knows her feelings about stephen. And then rowena was freaking mad at tessa too; because there werw multiple instances that tessa sharp-tongued her. 🤣...
What is wrong with the story flow? At chapter 160-164 there’s this whole thing about Stephen revealing in front of all the Jacobsons family members about Jacqueline’s inappropriate feelings towards him and her involvement in murder. There’s even this “Just like that, Jacqueline was officially expelled from the Jacobson family. Stephen then promptly handed her to the authorities.” So I was already glad the bitch is out of the picture. And then suddenly at chapter 236, Jacqueline appears again like nothing happened, still being the adoptive daughter of the Jacobson family and the family being unaware of her feelings for Stephen. Seriously? Doesn’t make sense anymore....
The latest update is just a repetition of the previous chapters...
